Excalibur Lyrics

Excalibur lyrics

You drew me from this stone, 



You pulled me out and up 



And now, I'm yours to wield 



But please don't use me for your hate, 



or you'll cause me to break 



See a lake-lady take me away 



Don't fear the hands of men, 



I'll swing and steal their skin and their blood. 



Just keep your hand on the hilt 



When you are cold let my gleam keep you warm. 



It's a gleam that's reflected 



From strength inside you 



Round table time again 



Confer with your secret selves, 



Your heart is in search of grails, 



Grails I can't give to you, 



No sword can help you to. 



Cut Guinevere-like desires away, 



When you want more than a crown, 



When you want a sword that sings 



I'm wrapped up in a shroud 



And tucked into a box 



But my edge is getting dull 



And my polish growing thin 



When you want more than a crown, 



When you want a sword that sings 



I'm wrapped up in a shroud 



And tucked into a box 



But my edge is getting dull 



And my polish growing thin 



For me there is no war to win 



And though I felt good in your hands 



And though I understand 



See a lake-lady take me away...
